Either formulation may be selected by availability or preference; confirms equivalent hemodynamic efficacy of spray and tablet nitroglycerin.
Does 0.4 mg sublingual nitroglycerin administered by spray compared to tablet alter the timing of hemodynamic effects in patients undergoing elective diagnostic cardiac catheterization?
Sublingual nitroglycerin administered by spray or tablet provides similar timing and extent of hemodynamic response during cardiac catheterization.
Laslett et al. (2008) studied this question.
